Exhaust
There are a few options for tuned exhaust for the
SS.
Our Super Tuned pipe is one of the best pipes you
can buy for this application. It has won many races
and holds several records in this class (gas mono).
One thing to remember is that you don’t ever want
to put any sideways pressure on the pipe. If you do,
something will eventually break.
When mounting the pipe, let it rest naturally (side to
side), before marking any hole locations.
Also, since these pipes are hand made, they are not
100% concentric. You can rotate the pipe on the
header and the center will change slightly.
Assemble the pipe and header to the engine (out of
the boat). You want a tuned length of 14 inches.
This is measured from the face of the exhaust port
(exhaust gasket) to the maximum diameter,
measured around the centerline of the header and
pipe.
Slip the engine back into the mounts and put the
pipe on the top of the transom.
Spin the pipe around and try to find the center. This
gives you a little bit of sideways adjustment if you
need it.
Mount the pipe to the transom with our 2016 pipe
mount.
Mount it just high enough to clear the deck. Leave at
least a 1/8 inch air space between the pipe and
deck.
